"Worldclass flash memory manufacturer Silicon Power today announces the world's first 400X Compact Flash (CF) card with 128GB of storage capacity. Announcing their 600X CF card not long ago for the ultimate performance, the 400X CF card is designed to offer the ultimate storage capacity while not compromising on performance, featuring a write speed of up to 90MB/sec. It is the largest storage capacity CF card to date!"
128 GB of storage in a CF card? Wow. I'm reminded of that line in Spaceballs about ludicrous speed. I have a 32 GB CF card that I rarely use because it's such an insane amount of storage - and it pales in comparison with this 128 GB card. I can't imagine the market for a 128 GB CF card is more than a few hundred world-wide, nor can I imagine the price on a card like this. Yikes!
